Subject: Re: [motm] Crow's take on the triple reversing mixer

From: Scott Juskiw <scott@...>

I hacked my Oakley multimixers so that they can act as a bias source.
It definately is a great thing to have around. I like your idea of
using 2.500V with a gain of +/- 2 (rather than unity gain). Hmmm, I
may have to hack my multimixers again.
